Proving Lines Parallel Chapter 3.5
Identify Parallel Lines A. Given 1 3, is it possible to prove that any of the lines shown are parallel? If so, state the postulate or theorem that justifies your answer. 1 and 3 are corresponding angles of lines a and b. Answer:Since 1 3, a║b by the Converse of the Corresponding Angles Postulate.
Identify Parallel Lines B. Given m1 = 103 and m4 = 100, is it possible to prove that any of the lines shown are parallel? If so, state the postulate or theorem that justifies your answer. 1 and 4 are alternate interior angles of lines a and c. Answer:Since 1 is not congruent to 4, line a is not parallel to line c by the Converse of the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem. Example 1
